Effects of Recombinant Human Lecithin Cholesterol Acyltransferase on Lipoprotein Metabolism in Humans
CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that an acute increase in LCAT activity drives greater flux of cholesteryl ester through the reverse cholesterol transport pathway without significantly altering the clearance and production of the main HDL proteins and without affecting the metabolism of APOB100-lipoproteins. Long-term elevations of LCAT might, therefore, have beneficial effects on total body cholesterol balance and atherogenesis.PMID:38695168 | DOI:10.1161/ATVBAHA.123.320387 (Source: Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology)

Hepatic PSMA-Avid Postradiation Inflammation
Clin Nucl Med. 2024 May 2. doi: 10.1097/RLU.0000000000005257. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA 62-year-old man with de novo large volume metastatic prostate cancer to the bone, liver, and nodes status post multiple lines of therapy including external beam radiation to T12-L2 approximately 13 months prior underwent 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT to determine eligibility for 177Lu-PSMA therapy. 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT demonstrated tracer-avid osseous and nodal lesions consistent with metastases. In addition, regional geographic tracer avidity was seen in the midline left hepatic lobe associated with capsular retraction and demonstrated no FDG avi...

Integrated transcriptomics and histopathology approach identifies a subset of rejected donor livers with potential suitability for transplantation

Reply to the Letter to the Editor on “Prolactin is a Key Factor for Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Obese Children”
Horm Metab Res DOI: 10.1055/a-2301-3272Dear Editor,The authors thank the writers 1 of the letter for reviewing and assessing our article 2, “Prolactin is a Key Factor for Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Obese Children”. Overall, we agree that possible selection bias must be considered. However, in clinical studies, we found that hyperprolactinemia is mainly caused by pathological and idiopathic hyperprolactinemia. The former includes hypothalamic pituitary lesions (pituitary prolactinoma and empty sella syndrome, etc.), systemic diseases (hypothyroidism, e...

Control Compounds for Preclinical Drug-Induced Liver Injury Assessment: Consensus-driven systematic review by the ProEuroDILI Network
Idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a complex and unpredictable event caused by drugs, herbal or dietary supplements. Early identification of human hepatotoxicity at preclinical stages remains a major challenge, in which the selection of validated in vitro systems and test drugs has a significant impact. This systematic review analyzed the compounds used in hepatotoxicity assays and established a list of DILI positive and negative control drugs for validation of in vitro models of DILI, supported by literature and clinical evidence and endorsed by an expert committee from COST Action ProEuroDILI Network (CA17...

Hepatic phenotypes of EFL1-related Shwachman-Diamond syndrome in a biopsy-validated study
Shwachman Diamond Syndrome (SDS), an inherited bone marrow failure syndrome, is characterized by exocrine pancreatic deficiency, predisposition to myeloid malignancies, and skeletal dysplasia. Other symptoms also include hepatic and renal involvement. Hepatomegaly and aminotransaminase elevation can be observed at an early age in SDS patients, typically with an overall good prognosis. A follow-up with mild cholestasis may reflect primary alterations in liver metabolism in SDS. During the long follow-up, no major liver abnormalities appeared [1]. (Source: Journal of Hepatology)

Energy sensor AMPK γ does not exist in isolation from AMPKα or interact with PPP6C in muscle and liver from humans and mice
In a recent study published in Molecular Cell, Zhou and colleagues provide evidence to suggest that the energy-sensing gamma ( γ) subunit of AMPK regulates translation via phosphatase PPP6C independently of the catalytic AMPK alpha (α) subunit.1 The authors used HEK239T cells to demonstrate that energy stress by glucose deprivation sequesters PPP6C to AMPKβγ dimer complexes, which alleviates dephosphorylation of eukaryo tic translation elongation factor 2 (eEF2) Thr56 and arrests protein translation elongation to conserve energy.

Response to: Energy sensor AMPK γ does not exist in isolation from AMPKα or interact with PPP6C in muscle and liver from humans and mice
In our paper “Energy sensor AMPK gamma regulates translation via phosphatase PPP6C independent of AMPK alpha,”1 we demonstrated that knockout (KO) of AMPKγ, but not AMPKα, suppressed phosphorylation of eukaryotic translation elongation factor 2 (eEF2) induced by energy starvation. We further identified PPP 6C as a phosphatase of eEF2, and AMP-bound AMPKγ sequesters PPP6C, thereby blocking dephosphorylation of eEF2. These findings implicate diverse mechanisms of energy sensor AMPKγ in regulating cellular energy response. (Source: Molecular Cell)
